Chael Sonnen makes a solid Dennis. 

The UFC fighter is just one of a few celebrities taking over for the regular cast of one of the funniest shows on TV right now. 

The ninth season of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia returns with an episode called “Pop-Pop: The Final Solution” on Oct. 11 at 10 p.m. ET on FX. 

Until then, we have this hilarious video (h/t Big Lead Sports) to keep us all giggly until next month. 

Sonnen, a man who is far more comfortable in the Octagon, shows off his comedic acting skills playing the new Dennis. 

He pulls it off rather nicely. 

The best parts may be at the 3:30 mark, when he sings “Dayman” with Full House‘s Candace Cameron, and at the 4:00 mark, when he talks about finally getting his big break.

“The plight of the blue-eyed German male in this country. If I finally get my chance, great. If not, I’ll go back to the street and return to gang life,” Sonnen says.

Other than that, I loved watching Haley Joel Osment answer the paranoid question of whether he and Xzibit really want to put their baby in a tanning bed. Of course they do, but just to get a nice base. 

Who knows how much Sonnen we will see on the first episode, but he certainly did enough to make Glenn Howerton, who plays Dennis Reynolds, a little nervous.

MMA Star Gina Carano Reportedly Set to Feature in Female-Version "Expendables"

Gina Carano is the biggest female action star in Hollywood right now. 

Please alert your friends accordingly to this breaking news. Really your thoughts on the subject are inconsequential because a producer has already labeled Carano as indispensable when it comes to making a female version of the hit movie The Expendables. 

Regardless, Variety reports (h/t Big Lead Sports) the MMA star—who is also something of a TV and film actor—is being targeted for the blockbuster. 

Carano also will be in Fast and the Furious 6 as well as a movie currently in pre-production called In the Blood. 

Her next project after that may very well be a star-studded action movie. That is, Carano will be the biggest star in the flick. 

The movie comes from producer Adi Shankar who also produced The Grey and the recent remake Dredd. 

The producer had some seriously intense praise for Carano and the pull she has as an action star. 

I don’t know how I’m supposed to make a movie that is supposed to be the female version of ‘The Expendables’ without Gina Carano in it. It would be like making Twix without caramel or Jamba Juice without jamba. 

Wow. Someone has a fairly inflated opinion on what we think of the Jamba that goes into Jamba Juice. Some might say that takes a rather shortsighted look at what Juice offers to the equation. 

As for Carano, her Hollywood career is no doubt on an upward swing right now, but I would measure my expectations of a movie solely hoping to have her drive ticket sales. 

As Expendables proved, no amount of star power can make a horrible movie any better. It’s the one reason I have crawled to see the sequel. 

While I hear great things, the bad acting in the first Sylvester Stallone epic made me far too weary. 

As the Variety report states, movies with strong female leads are having quite the year. The Hunger Games, Snow White and the Huntsman and Resident Evil: Retribution all had strong females in the lead roles and all performed well at the box office.

That’s great news for Hollywood and fans of the movies it pumps out, but I’m just not ready to call Carano the caramel inside a Twix just yet. 

Follow me on Twitter to quell that Jamba Juice and Twix hunger.

MMA Ring-Girl Arianny Celeste Poses for Sexy Maxim Korea Soccer Shoot

Arianny Celeste has made quite the career from being one of the most beautiful women in the world. She is back at it again, this time in a Korean photo shoot guaranteed to invigorate. 

A tip of the hat to SportsGrid and The Roosevelts for spotting a photo shoot taking place clear across the other side of the world. 

The shoot is for the Korean version of Maxim, and we are indeed jelly that they get the issue and not us. 

Hooray indeed for the Internet machine making the planet a much smaller place to maneuver around. For that, we get this football photo shoot with everyone’s favorite ring girl and model. 

Let’s continues by saying we have no idea where the football theme comes in to play. Celeste has long been a UFC ring girl whose beauty has ensured she take the spotlight from the fighters at times. 

Her modeling career even saw her splash on the pages of a November 2010 issue of Playboy. 

It hasn’t been all rainbows and puppy dogs for the rising star. This past year has been filled with tumult for Celeste who was arrested back in May for battery domestic violence. 

She and her then boyfriend Praveen Chandra were taken into custody because of an altercation they had at the Wynn in Las Vegas. 

Fortunately, the charges against her were dropped a couple months later. 

Now the future is again a promising one for this beautiful face of MMA. Not sure if this photo shoot means she will traipse into the realm of soccer, but we certainly welcome any and all ventures she may be inclined to take on. 

Now we await American Maxim to get us a similar spread.

Former UFC Fighter Jason Miller Arrested for Naked Mayhem Inside Church

Former UFC fighter Jason “Mayhem” Miller lived up to his moniker when he was arrested Monday after police found him in an Orange County church naked. 

TMZ reports the physical state of being nude wasn’t the only thing wrong with the picture, because it seems Miller managed to vandalize the place as well. 

…after allegedly breaking into a church, spraying a fire extinguisher all over the place, and getting buck naked.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, the O.C. Sheriff’s Office received a call early this morning from the Mission Hills Church in Mission Viejo about a possible burglary in progress.

The cops showed up to quite the scene as there were broken CDs, scattered books and destroyed pictures strewn all over the church. 

The odd part of an already bizarre story is they found Miller on the second floor, sitting on a couch, allegedly awake and quite coherent. 

The former host of MTV’s “Bully Beatdown” is now in custody for burglary and is being medically evaluated.  

I may be stepping out on a tiny limb here, but I would wager there may be some interesting things found after a medical evaluation. 

I just can’t fathom a completely sober person rampaging a church while naked. Then again, we aren’t discussing a normal person here. 

Mayhem does have a rather odd track record. First off, his nickname is Mayhem, something not given to level-headed people with a grip on common sense. 

Second, he was too brash to last in the UFC. The TMZ report reminds us Dana White had to cut ties with Miller for what he said was, “some crazy sh*t happened backstage.”

Then came this tweet a few days ago aimed at the UFC president.

 

 

It seems that crazy stuff can also transpire at a house of worship in the well-to-do Orange County portion of Southern California. 

TMZ has been unable to get an update as calls out to Miller’s reps were not returned.

JP Joubert recently came away with the win and a cracked skull, two things that would seem to be mutually exclusive. 

Big Lead Sports spotted this remarkable tale of one MMA fighter getting his dome broken only to leave the cage the victor. 

Now is not the time to whine about your stubbed toe or muscle cramps from your morning jog. 

Big Lead Sports has actual video of the fight that caused Joubert one ridiculous headache, one that led to this amazing picture. 

Joubert answered one of his fans with a CT Scan that is simply painful to look at.

 

That dent where a smoothed-out skull should be is the result of one too many blows to the head at the light heavyweight championship fight at EFC Africa 15 last month. 

As the report issues, Joubert managed to beat Norman Wessels despite the awful injury, which was apparently one of many on a raucous night of fighting. 

EFC Africa has a report on the night’s injuries. Among them is Joubert’s listed as the following: “Frontal sinus fracture and concussion. Transported to hospital for CT scan and treatment.”

We applaud the man for staying in the fight and finishing what he started. But really, feel free to throw in the towel when your skull gets broken.

Five seconds is all Veronica Rothenhausler needs to cave in a perfectly fine face. 

Yahoo Sports gives more information on a video that features a brief moment of excellence, at least from the victor, Rothenhausler. 

The video comes from the recent Tuff-n-Uff bout and is only the third fight for Rothenhausler. The last time she fought, she decimated Noelle Cherry in, you guessed it, five seconds. 

As for the unfortunate loser in this bout, Ashlee Evans-Smith will think twice next time she scoffs at touching gloves before the round starts. 

Had she just given a little dap, this fight may have lasted seven seconds. 

In just her third bout, Rothenhausler seemed to ask Evans-Smith if she wanted to touch gloves before the fight. 

Her opponent declined, wanting get on with the clash. That might be the only explanation for allowing face to meet fist so abruptly. 

Evans-Smith immediately went to the ground following a brief combo from Rothenhausler, and the official called off the fight before anyone lost their breath. 

Her next opponent may not need any endurance training, because the fight should be over before anyone breaks a sweat.
